That is the 'classic' ETM failure. Cleaning the module may not help, the armature physically rubs a groove and destroys the ETM. The XemodeX system permanently fixes this problem, but costs $500 to do so. XemodeX.com is a Canadian company with a good reputation but they are not open on Sundays.

You cannot bypass the ETM, parking on a hill didn't break it. It sounds like the dealer already re-programmed the module to use a different part of the pad and cannot be re-programmed again.
